WIN CHESTER vs. PYTHON

D Ihe Wfnchester Hose Company Boys \ Indignant at Treatment Received Fl From the FittOn Company of Rock. vflIe-Two Meetings Arranged for but the W1nchesters Disappointed BotI, Times.
 A committee from Winchester Hose com
 pany went to Hartford last Saturday to meet
 committee from Fitton Hose company of Rockville to arrange for 8 contest. The Rockville committee did not come and the New Haven fire laddies went home disgusted Sunday & telegram was received which stated that the letter arranging for the meeting the day Before had not arrived until late in the eve1ing. They set August as the date of m' ',eting.
 Yesterday the gentlemen from Rockville did not put in an appearance and the Win chester company now declare the matter dropped. The following letter will be for warded today:
 To M. D. E. Futile:
 You speak in your letter of wishing to have some understanding. I should think after the agreement you made yourself desir- ing to have committee from the Winches- ter Hose company meet your committee at Hartford and you failed to put in an appear ance and made no excuse for not showing yourselves is certainly evidence enough that Fitton Hose company is not anxious to meet the Winchester company. But if I under stand you will say right here that am will ing to meet you at New Haven any time you say to draw up the agreement you speak of. There is no need of all this writing It simply amounts to nothing. Win- chester Hose means business; if they had not they would not have gone to Hartford Saturday and waited until o'clock to see your committee. You probably forgot all about it; if you did or did not forget it sim ply proves to you that all previous arrange ments, whatever they were, are broken and gives us chance to speak; and what pro- pose to say is this: 'FWe are anxious to meet you and your committee in New Haven at any time you say, and remember if we agree to meet you we will do so. But as your letter stated you seem desirous of dropping the matter. If so say so, and we as gentlemen will say no more about it, but will claim l what rightfully belongs to us under the cir | cumstances-the championship"

TO PARALLEL THE DERBY.

The TomlinsOn Cut Near the Naugas tuck Junction TO Re Utilized For Freight and Passenger Trains-What Superintendent Shepard Says-The Meeting Of the Derby Directors To. Day.
 Another meeting of the Derby railroad
 stockholders is called for five o'clock this
 afternoon in the officers quarters at the
 Union depot.
 This will be an important meeting, as an
 executive committee will be elected and an
 important change made in the bylaws.
 There is no doubt but what Messrs. Star
 buck, Stevenson and Bostwick will be elect
 ed as members of the executive committee.
 The change in the bylaws will provide that
 three directors can request the president to
 call together meeting of the stockholders.
 MT Starbuck, it is expected, will make
 known his future plans after to days meet
 ing, when he will own the road practically.
 The Ansonia Sentinel of last evening prints
 the following: The Consolidated folks, mean
 while, are not idle. They are prepared for
 any emergency. Their parallel scheme is
 much nearer than most people think. Indeed,
 while the public are waiting to witness the
 breaking of the ground for the construction
 of the parallel to the Derby, the line is al
 ready here It can be put in operation at
 few hours notice. All passengers over the
 Naugatuck to Bridgeport will remember
 just they approach the Naugatuck function there is circular cut through the
 rocks to the left. That is known as the Tomlinson cut. It takes it's name from Rus sell Tomlinson, under whose administration it was built. Prior to the opening of the
 Derby, trains for New Haven by the valley went by this route. It is longer in dis tance than by the Derby road, but the swift CT trains of the Naugatuck track will enable the Consolidated people to deliver passengers in New Haven in about the same length of time. To be precise, trains can make the passage from Ansonia to New Haven via the Naugatuck junction in forty minutes. So say officers of the road.
 When ths passenger trains start it is prob able that only three stops will be made be- tween Ansonia and New Haven-at Derby, Naugatuck junction and Milford. For many persons who come down the Naugatuck road these stops will be very convenient and it is said they can be made without delaying the trains beyond the forty minutes. Trains on the Derby road now consume about the same time.
 Superintendent Shepard was seen and he said in regard to this connection: "This will ' in 8 measure do away with the necessity of a parallel road to the Derby, as we can by this
 take passengers direct to any sta, ton on the NauBatuck roau AL ! present any freight consigned to any station l on the Naugatuck road which is handled by the Consolidated road has to be first shipped
 to Bridgeport and then switched on the Nau- gatuck tracks. Thus a great deal of valuable ! time is lost, as the freight must be taken to
 Bridgeport and then back to thls Junction, useless tourney of ten miles. This new con- nection will do away with this and will make it great deal more convenient tor passen- gers and shippers of freight"

 PHILADELPH1A, Aug. 4.-The most impor- tant business of the day in the convention of Catholic Total Abstinence union was the reading and adoption of the report of the committee on resolutions, which is quite long and contains mostly pledges to further exertion in the cause of temperance. Refer ence is made to Ireland in the following resolutions, as part of the report:
 Resolved, That while we welcome as true citizens the coming anniversary which com nemorates the cherished traditions, the hal lowed memories of American liberty forever associated with Philadelphia's Independence Hall, we also hail beforehand as lovers of liberty the world over and of children still Of the divided Gaels the coming declaration ot Irelands independence and pledge anew to aid it's coming-our efforts increasing, our resources unfailing and our undying devo- tion.
 The report concludes with this resolu- ton:
 Resolved, That as an additional means of furthering of our grand, our noble and holy undertaking that the union recommend to all the societies the formation of cadet corps and the semi-centennial celebration in April, 1888, of the signing of the pledge of our na- tional temperance apostle, Father Theobald Matthew.
 At the conclusion of the reading of the res olution Father Doran of the committee stated that minority of the committee objected to the fifth resolution providing that the con vention support legislative movements for the entire restriction of the liquor traffic and a somewhat confused debate followed, sev- eraI of the delegates wanting the resolution stricken out, while others argued for the adoption of the entire report. It was finally ordered that as a request has been made the rules required that the resolutions be read separately and acted upon in that manner.

To Make Strenuous Efforts to Put
 Down the Gladstone Reaction.
 LONDON, Aug. 4-A private conference of Liberal Unionists was held to-day for the purpose of discussing means for checking the Gladstonian reaction. The speakers agreed in attributing their defeats partly to the enthusiasm and energy of the home rulers in assisting the Gladstonian candidates and partly to the want of united action on the part of the Unionists and Conservatives. MT. Chamberlain pointed to the example of the Parnellites sending a contingent to every contest to influence the electors. To the im- pending election in Norwich Mr. Dillon, T. P. O'Connor and several others are going on the stump for the Gladstonians and the Unionists must send militant members also.
